Testing
Testing plays a major role in the development process allowing the player to set benchmarks based on where they are today compared to where the player needs to be one year, three years or seven years down the road. HI’s testing program is the replication of renowned hockey physiologist, “Cardiac” Jack Blatherwick. Cardiac Jack has been involved with testing and training elite athletes for over 30 years, including the “Miracle on Ice” 1980 Olympic team. Having tested Olympic, Professional, and D-1 players, Jack has gathered immense data where we provide players with statistics and graphs comparing their results to those of elite levels. This allows players to obtain a new perspective along with a plan that outlines the long-term development process. As players see improvement they become more passionate to accomplish the goal of increasing their test scores.
